They got up, with the champagne glasses emptied, and danced together, elegantly, and before they were fully aware, they danced most of the night away. She couldn't help herself, she said to him, "Won't you come home with me?"
Boo was hesitant though just for a moment. Lita knew of course from all their talk that Boo had come in from out of town. If he stayed at her place he wouldn't have to just sleep in his wagon. "We can go right now if you want. Is it far?"
"It is just around the corner."

Read the Lita/Boo run. What holds me: the Copacabana bones are under it (Lola, the showgirl, the dress, the dark brown voice, Tony still in the wings) but your beats go where the song doesn't. The tragedy the chorus promises is the room; the story lives in the night the song skips: the invite, the walk around the corner. "before they were fully aware" does that at the line level too. Real move, and it's working.
